key fob broke, any way to fix it?

In my pocket, the part of the key fob that connects to the key ring broke and cracked off. Now it does not stay on a key ring.
Has anybody found a solution to this, maybe a fix or something?
P.S....Its not the key ring that broke, but rather the hole of the fob that the ring goes through.

Try to super glue that broken piece back together, or get another one.

I think getting another one is a better idea than supergluing the key fob. It's bound to break off again.

Reprogramming a new key fob is pretty easy.
